Support the Aleksov family to reunite with their baby
In February of 2019 – ten months after she had moved to Denmark with her husband – Dijana (25) gave natural birth to a baby that was without a pulse and should have been delivered under caesarean.
Due to hospital negligence, she has a baby that has cerebral palsy and may have severe damage to the brain. And as a direct result, today lives in isolation from his mother in a medical institution.
During a period of their lives where they should have experienced a heightened state of euphoria – after the successful resettlement in a new country and the birth of their second child, Dijana and her husband Bobi’s lives were swept over with an acute sense of tragedy when hospital staff had ignored crucial information about Dijana’s first pregnancy.
When Dijana went into labour, she had shared crucial information with hospital staff about her first pregnancy, highlighting that it had been delivery by caesarean.
Despite her transparency about this information, the hospital had performed a natural birth without considering the associated risks under the given circumstances.
In cases where the first pregnancy has been delivered by caesarean, the delivery of the second pregnancy should be performed as a caesarean to avoid complications.
The malpractice of Dijana’s second delivery led to severe complications, including the caesarean from her first delivery bursting internally and resulting in the baby suffocating due to internal bleeding of the womb.
Nine years before the tragic birth of her second child, Dijana and Bobi had met in the capital city of Macedonia, Skopje. At the time, Dijana had moved from a small village and modest family life to get a college education in technical drafting and secure herself a comfortable future.
Bobi had also grown up in very modest conditions; he didn’t have the opportunity to secure himself a proper university education, and instead, had finished his qualifications as a mechanic. But shortly after, decided that this was not a sustainable career path and decided to open his own business in the hospitality industry instead. This pathway also had its challenges, and eventually, Bobi had to close shop.
At this stage, Bobi and Dijana had their first child Maxim. Despite both their early setbacks in life, they made family-related sacrifices, consistently putting the needs of others before their own. Continuing to reside with Bobi’s late grandfather, Dedo Boro, in a small two-bedroom apartment, they took care of his daily and medical needs until his passing.
The passing of Dedo Boro was a major turning point for Dijana and Bobi, and when they began to make plans to start a new life abroad, in a country that could provide them with more opportunities. This plan gave them a sense of hope, but it also meant making more familial sacrifices; and in April of 2017, Bobi moved to Denmark solo to pave the way for a new life for their family.
It was only in January of 2018 that Dijana and Maxim could make their move across to Denmark. Once in Odense, Denmark, the Aleskov family wholeheartedly began their settlement journey in a new country, and finally, began to harness themselves a balanced and harmonious life.
A short while after they had settled in Odense, Dijana fell pregnant with their second child. As she had not given a natural birth during her first pregnancy, she had alerted her doctor and the hospital to the fact that she had a caesarean.
Despite sharing this critical piece of information, when admitted to hospital shortly after her water had broken on February 22 this year, the hospital had continued with a natural birth delivery, which led to severe complications. And when baby Leo came into the world on February 23, he had no pulse, and hospital staff had no choice but to perform resuscitation.
After rigorous scans, it was confirmed that baby Leo had cerebral palsy and most likely other disabilities that are difficult to determine at this stage, due to lack of oxygen to the brain. It was later discovered and communicated by hospital staff to Bobi and Dijana, that Dijana’s old caesarean had burst internally, and the baby had suffocated due to internal bleeding of the womb. A lack of oxygen was the cause of the baby’s acquired disabilities.
Since day one of his life, baby Leo has lived a complicated existence between medical cross-examinations and is prescribed to living in isolation from his family in a medical institution. He is unable to perform simple, instinctive behaviours, such as responding to food, and is often fed through a tube.
Dijana and Bobi do not speak fluent Danish, and battle financial hardships with simple everyday expenses, let alone finding the means to pay for complex legal advice and fees in a country where they are unfamiliar with the laws and their civil rights. Despite the situation clearly showing the negligence of the hospital; they have not found the right legal support to help them make this case.
This experience has been both emotionally taxing and traumatising, especially given the context of starting a new life in a foreign country that they are unfamiliar with, and without the support of family, friends and community.
Three weeks after the birth of baby Leo, Dijana’s father (54), had passed away from cancer back in Macedonia. Ever since Dijana has been increasingly withdrawn and depression has enveloped her.
The growing financial strains are taking a toll on Bobi and Dijana’s rapidly decreasing savings accounts.
The reality is that Dijana and Bobi are in for a long and hard fight and would appreciate any donation you can make to support their situation.
Any amount in donations is impactful, and every cent is helping baby Leo’s road to improvement.

Poradi neodgovornosta na bolnicata, novorodenceto na Dijana se rodi so cerebralna paraliza i dozivea znacajno mozocno ostetuvanje. Kako neposredna posledica na seto toa, denes bebeto zivee izolirano od svojata majka i svoeto Semejstvo, i e smesteno vo medicinska institucija.
Otkako semejstvoto tesko, no uspesno emigrira vo Danska i semejnata prinova vetuvase sreka i radost, zivotot i nadezta na Dijana, nejziniot soprug Bobi i prvoto since Maksim, bea tragicno zamraceni. Tragedijata gi nadvisna vo momentot koga bolnickiot personal ja ignorira sustinskata informacija na Dijana za nejzinata prva bremenost.
Koga Dijana pocna da se poroduva taa mu predoci na medicinskiot personal deka nejzinoto prvo dete go ima porodeno so carski rez.
Pokraj nejzinoto direktno i jasno posocuvanje na ovaa vazna informacija, bolnicata prodolzilla so procedura na prirodno poroduvanje koe so sebe nosi ogromen rizik po zivotot na majkata i novorodenceto. Vo slucaj koga prvoto poroduvanje e izvreseno so carski rez, togas mora i vtoroto poroduvanje da bide prosledeno so ista procedura.
Ne pocetuvanjeto na ovaa sustinska procedura dovede do zivotni komplikacii kako za majka ta taka i za novorodenoto bebe. Carskiot rez od prvata bremenost puknal sto rezultiralo vo vnatresno krvarenje vo utrobata koe dovelo do zagusuvanje na novorodenceto.
